I am passionate about Women's Health and feel very privileged to be able to walk with you on this journey. Continuity of care and individualised care are associated with better health outcomes and I am pleased to be able to provide this service to the women of Townsville and the Far North Queensland region.
I grew up with my 3 sisters in the Waverley area of Melbourne and went to Monash University for my science degree and PhD in Molecular Biology. My medical degree was obtained at The University of Melbourne and then I spent my residency at Monash Health and The Royal Women's Hospital in Melbourne.
My training as an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist was primarily spent in Queensland at various hospitals including Gold Coast University Hospital, The Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital, Caboolture Hospital and Townsville University Hospital. I finished my training at Sandringham Hospital in Melbourne so that I could be with my family during the COVID pandemic and lockdowns.
In setting up my own business I wanted to provide care that is consistent with my personal values and the values of my company. Specifically, I value compassion, integrity, respect, honesty and excellence. I aim to provide care with these values front and centre and expect that you experience this at all points in your patient journey.
Family is very important to me and I am very close to my twin sister Imogen and her two adolescent daughters. We share our adorable French Bulldog called Gus and I love spending time with them. Gus's hobbies are gardening and chasing boats. My hobbies are hanging out with Gus, sewing and knitting.
I look forward to meeting you and your family and guiding you through pregnancy or assisting you with your Women's Health concerns.
